I woke up this morning and realized that today is the day that DJ Khaled released his new album “Grateful”. Before the Epic Records project was released, it grabbed a #1 single spot with “I’m The One” Feat. Justin Bieber, Lil Wayne, Chance The Rapper and Quavo. Before people can digest this album, it might get another #1 spot with “Wild Thoughts” Feat. Rihanna and Bryson Tiller.

“Grateful” is a star studded compilation featuring artists like Beyonce, Jay-Z, Calvin Harris, Nas, Drake, Future, Migos, Sizzla, Mavado and much more. It has music for a wide range of people. Trap music heads can check out tracks like “Pull A Caper” and “That Range Rover Came With Steps” while hip-hop purist can check out “Good Man”, “It’s Secured” and “Billy Ocean”. To me, it seems like Khaled is talking more than usual on this project and with good reason. As a new father, Khaled is splitting the Executive Producer claim with his son, Asahd on this project. He dedicated a song to him called “I Love You So Much”.

Overall, this is another good body of work for the summer for DJ Khaled. Check it out and let me know your thoughts.

It looks like Dej Loaf is gearing up for her 1st full length album release on Columbia Records. Her 1st single of the soon to be released “Liberated” album, “No Fear” dropped on her Soundcloud page over the weekend and is gaining some serious buzz. The Detroit native has managed to keep busy since her 2014 hit “Try Me” off of her mixtape “Sell Sole”. A few projects and tours later, she seems to be growing as an artist with s refined sound. This new track is something that we haven’t quite heard from her before and as a DJ, I think it’s dope! I can see this becoming a very big record for her. But then again, that is up to you the listener. Check this out and let us know what you think. If you like the track, feel free to request it by using the free Commish Radio app available now at The App Store and Google Play.

I’m currently listening to the brand new solo album from Big Boi of Outkast. “Boomiverse” is the 1st solo project from Big Boi since the release of his 2012 solo album “Vicious Lies And Dangerous Rumors”. Since then, he teamed with rock band Phantogram and released an album called “Big Grams” in 2015.

As a fan of Outkast, I know that I can expect Big Boi to push the musical boundaries as far as he can. He doesn’t disappoint on “Boomiverse”. The sound is futuristic but crisp, clean and definitely south with tracks by producers like Dr. Luke, Scott Storch, Mannie Fresh and the trusty Organized Noize. He called on friends like Snoop Dogg, Gucci Mane, Adam Levine of Maroon 5, Janelle Monae and more to add their vocal presence to the project. The lead single “Kill Jill” featuring Jeezy and Killer Mike is currently playing on Commish Radio. Feel free to check out the album, let us know what you think and request the single using the free Commish Radio app available now at The App Store and Google Play.

This past Friday morning, DJ Khaled dropped what I feel will be the song of the 2017 summer! The infectious “Wild Thoughts” features Rihanna and Bryson Tiller over the beat of Carlos Santana’s “Maria Maria” track with Project G&B. Check out the video and feel free to request this song by using the free Commish Radio app available now at The App Store and Google Play.

She’s back! We may not know who she is but if you heard the Vol. 1 mixtape last year, you know the sound is undeniable. In independent release of Vol. 1 was critically acclaimed earning H.E.R. a deal with RCA Records. Yesterday, the Vol. 2 sequel to that mixtape was released. The mysterious H.E.R. has taken the internet and music industry by storm with 8 new sultry and soulful R&B tracks and social media is on it. If you was wondering where is the R&B, it’s right here! Check it out and let us know what you think. Feel free to request H.E.R. on the station by using the free Commish Radio app at The App Store or Google Play.

The summer season is officially a few days away and some of hip-hop’s hottest stars are getting ready for it. Gucci Mane will not remain quiet this summer. He just dropped his latest project called “Droptopwop”. The 10 track project features artists like Offset from Migos, Rick Ross and Young Dolph and features producers like Metro Boomin. Let us know what you think.

If you haven’t heard or seen the commercials yet, the lovable animation movie Despicable Me 3 is coming June 23rd. The last movie soundtrack (Despicable Me 2) featured Pharrell’s Academy Award winning single “Happy”. With the release of the newest movie, Pharrell is hoping for the same luck. Let us know what you think. Feel free to request this track using the free Commish Radio app.

This morning, DJ Khaled left a gift in our inbox. He dropped his newest single as a buildup to the June 23rd release of his next project “Grateful”. The new track features Drake and it’s called “To The Max”. This up tempo track is vastly different from the duo’s summertime anthem last year “For Free”.
